What I did….

1. I
started off by painting the money box with Chocolate Pudding Fresco Paint, gave
it a quick dry and then painted it with a layer of Crackle Glaze. Once that was
dry I painted on a layer of Hint of Mint Fresco Paint……the PaperArtsy Crackle
Glaze is great, you really see the crackles appearing pretty much as soon as
you start applying your top coat of paint.

2. Then
using Potting Soil Archival I randomly stamped some script in various places.
Then I got some sand paper and gave the edges a bit of a sand.….

3. Then
I stamped the bear onto a scrap of thin paper, added a little bit of colour
using some alcohol marker pens, cut him out and glued him in place using a bit
of Mod Podge.

4. To
finish it off I very lightly applied some black ink to some edges and then some
gold gilding wax before giving it all a coat of satin varnish.
